More quotes by Aung San Suu Kyi
When you feel helpless, help someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I think that freedom is sometimes a state of mind. Sometimes, mind you, but not always.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There's a certain age when your height stops growing and you cannot change that. This sort of body growth cannot be fixed. But there are many things that can be changed. You might have a small body structure but there are opportunities to make yourself very fit and healthy. So we'll have to work hard in many aspects.
Aung San Suu Kyi
It is part of the unceasing human endeavor to prove that the spirit of man can transcend the flaws of his own nature.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I do not believe that I'm sacrificing, in fact I feel very uneasy when others used the word sacrifice to describe my life. It sounds like I'm demanding returns for my investments. I chose to walk on this journey, because I solely believed in it and wholeheartedly decided to do so, and I'm willing and able to pay for the consequences.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Assuming the chairmanship of ASEAN isn't going to do anything about improving the lives of people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There is nothing to compare with the courage of ordinary people whose names are unknown and whose sacrifices pass unnoticed. The courage that dares without recognition, without the protection of media attention, is a courage that humbles and inspires and reaffirms our faith in humanity.
Aung San Suu Kyi
If you're feeling helpless, help someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Justice is a dream. But it is a dream that we are determined to realize.
Aung San Suu Kyi
There is no intrinsic virtue to law and order unless 'law' is equated with justice and 'order' with the discipline of a people satisfied that justice has been done.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Please use your freedom to promote ours.
Aung San Suu Kyi
To the best of my knowledge, no war was ever started by women. But it is women and children who have always suffered most in situations of conflict.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I haven't heard any music on the BBC World Service in a long time. Maybe I'm listening at the wrong times. But not one single piece of music.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I think more women should be involved in politics for the good of the human race.
Aung San Suu Kyi
I'm rather inclined to liking people.
Aung San Suu Kyi
All military regimes use security as the reason why they should remain in power. It's nothing original.
Aung San Suu Kyi
If you feel helpless, go help someone.
Aung San Suu Kyi
In terms of the history of a far reaching movement, 20 years is not that long.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Democracy acknowledges the right to differ as well as the duty to settle differences peacefully. Authoritarian governments see criticism of their actions and doctrines as a challenge to combat.
Aung San Suu Kyi
The struggle for democracy and human rights in Burma is a struggle for life and dignity. It is a struggle that encompasses our political, social and economic aspirations.
